Preliminary pilot plant investigation of the Acid Leach - CCD - solvent extraction process as applied to White Canyon ores

The preliminary operation of the Acid Leach - CCD – Solvent Extraction Pilot Plant at Grand Junction, Colorado, was conducted from November 8, 1956 to January 3, 1957 using White Canyon ores. The report contains information on the grinding, leaching, and liquid-solid separation by continuous counter...

W.; Gardner, H. E.; Shimmin, R. L. National Lead Company, Inc. Raw Materials Development Laboratory 1957 April 12 1957-04-12 The preliminary operation of the Acid Leach - CCD – Solvent Extraction Pilot Plant at Grand Junction, Colorado, was conducted from November 8, 1956 to January 3, 1957 using White Canyon ores. The report contains information on the grinding, leaching, and liquid-solid separation by continuous countercurrent decantation. Detailed information is presented on the liquid-liquid solvent extraction of the leach liquor using organic solvents containing di-2-ethylhexyl phosphoric acid or triisooctyl amine. Results show White Canyon ores to be amenable to the Acid Leach CCD - Solvent Extraction process. Using di-2-ethylhexyl phosphoric acid, reagent consumptions were relatively high whereas with triisooctyl amine excellent recovery of uranium was obtained with moderate reagent requirements.
